- Support The intro mentions (Ukrainian: Podillya, Russian: Podolye, Polish: Podole), but does not say what language "Podilia" is used in, as the region is traditionally known in English by the Latin/Italian name Podolia. Olessi 15:27, 30 November 2005 (UTC)

Mainstream history books about Ukraine use both forms, and the self-identifying Ukrainian form is preferable. But the Ukrainian form is Podillya, not Podilia. LuiKhuntek 23:13, 30 November 2005 (UTC)
- Those are the same Ukrainian word; ia and ya are used to transliterate я in different transliteration systems, and it's quite common for non-linguistic sources to simplify doubled consonants.
- Podilia is transliterated using the official simplified version of the National system for place names, which we use for Misplaced Pages articles about Ukrainian places. Podillya is transliterated using BGN/PCGN, which is commonly used by Oxford and many other atlases. See Romanization of Ukrainian for these and other systems. —Michael Z. 2005-11-30 23:43 Z
